TOLEDO, Ohio – Toledo hosts Eastern Michigan on Tuesday, Nov. 2 (7:30 p.m./ESPN2) in a key MAC West Division game that could have important implications in the race for the Mid-American Conference Championship.
Toledo (4-4, 2-2 MAC) and EMU (5-3, 2-2) are in a five-way tie for second place in the West Division, two games behind division leader Northern Illinois (4-0). Since both the Rockets and Eagles have lost to NIU this season, both teams are effectively three games behind the Huskies with four games left. The winner may still have an outside chance to catch NIU, especially if the Huskies lose their game at Kent State on Nov.
